Bengio LeCun Deep Learning Video

Bengio and Lecun created this wonderful video on Deep Neural Networks. Any logical function can be represented by a neural net with 3 layers (one hidden, see e.g. CNF), however simple 4 level logical functions with a small number of nodes may require a large number of nodes in a 3 layer representation. They point to theorems that show that the number of nodes required to represent a k level logical function can require an exponential number of nodes in a k-1 level network. They go on to explain denoising auto encoders for the training of deep neural nets.
